Welcome to Troop 101's Scouting program. We meet Thursdays from 7-8:30pm at Trinity Church (23 Main St.).
Be sure to check out our calendar and the Troop 101 News section below for all of our Upcoming 2009 - 2010 events. As always, don't hesitate to contact us with any comments, questions or concerns.
Cabin Camping in Tamworth, New Hampshire at Hemenway State Forest. February 26-28. Hike 1/2 mile into the woods to a rustic cabin where there will be winter activities including sledding.
If you are an experienced skier or snow boarder you can join us for a trip to Wildcat Mountain in Pinkam Notch across from Mt Washington. We've gotten an incredible group rate that includes lunch on the mountain. Wildcat was rated #1 in North America for scenery by Ski Magazine! It's also rated in the top 10 in the east for terrain, challenge, and value!!! It's a full 2,112 ft of vertical on the high speed quad. More than twice the vertical as Wachusett and less money, too. Don't miss this one, sign up on the website today!
During the day those not skiing will snow Shoe up to the lookout tower, build snow caves, create a world class sledding hill, work on advancement and have fun.
This trip will be subsidized by the troop, those not skiing will pay $15. If you are skiing an additional cost of $42 (ages 13-18), $35 (ages 11 & 12), or $52 (Adults) is required for lift ticket and lunch. Scouts bring money for Hot Chocolate and other snacks at Wildcat. Additional cost for ski rentals if required. Cost based on sign-up of 20 members..

The zipline adventure courses at Alpine Adventures allow thrill-seekers to fly across the landscape at speeds of up to 50 miles an hour while suspended as much as 200 feet off the ground.

Baden-Powell thought for the day: We do not want to make scout training too soft.
